The Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend payment of $0.15 per common share. The dividend will be payable on May 17, 2021 to shareholders of record as of May 10, 2021. The dividend payout ratio for earnings for the first quarter of 2021 was 30.0%. This continues the over 50-year trend of paying dividends by the Company.
“After an interesting and challenging year in 2020, we are pleased to start the year with solid results,” said Len Williams, President and Chief Executive Officer of Altabancorp™. “All of our branch lobbies and drive-up windows have been safely reopened, and we have started to bring our employees back from remote work to our operational facilities. In 2020, we provided substantial financial relief to our clients through participation in government programs as well as our own payment relief programs. We continue to offer additional funding through the second round of SBA PPP loans. While our payment relief programs are substantially complete, we will continue to work with our clients to provide financial solutions to assist them on their path to recovery as we all work to overcome the negative effects of the pandemic.”
Mr. Williams continued, “We continue to receive significant funds from our clients related to financial relief programs from us and government agencies, as well as normal organic deposit growth. As a result, our total deposits have grown by over $1.0 billion year-over-year, which represents a 49% increase from the same period a year earlier. Our loans held for investment increased over $154 million, or 9%, in the first quarter compared with the prior year. For the past couple of years, we have completed several initiatives to improve the overall credit quality of our loan portfolio, including lowering our overall loan concentrations both in terms of product type and asset class; tightening of our overall underwriting standards; improving our sales and credit processes; and enhancing technology in the commercial lending space. With these initiatives substantially complete, our existing and recently hired commercial lenders have the tools and processes in place to aggressively and safely grow our loan book. In addition, Utah has one of the strongest economies in the nation and we have significant liquidity that provides us with the flexibility to grow our loan portfolio. As a result, we anticipate achieving high-single digit loan growth for all of 2021.”
COVID-19 Pandemic and Utah Economy
The State of Utah has developed a COVID-19 Transmission Index (“Transmission Index”), which categorizes levels of transmission as High, Moderate, or Low. Each county receives a rating every week. The Company’s COVID-19 pandemic response plan directly correlates to the State’s Transmission Index. The Transmission Index for all the counties where our branches are located have transitioned to Moderate during the first quarter. In addition, the Governor of Utah signed a bill lifting the statewide mask mandate on April 10, 2021. The Company has reopened all of its branch lobbies. The Company has also started bringing some of its operational teams back to its facilities. However, the Company anticipates that some of its staff will remain working from home for the foreseeable future.
The Company is fortunate to operate in a region that appears to be weathering the COVID-19 pandemic well economically. The Utah economy has performed better than the nation as a whole during the pandemic with an unemployment rate of 2.9% at the end of March 2021 compared with 6.0% for the nation for the same period. Utah experienced a 0.90% year-over-year increase in total jobs at March 31, 2021 compared with a 4.4% decline in jobs for the nation for the same respective periods. The Company expects that the Utah economy will continue to perform better than most states in the U.S.
Small Business Administration Paycheck Protection Program (“SBA PPP”)
Under the first round of the SBA PPP loan program, the Company funded 333 loans, totaling $84.6 million. The Company has filed 241 forgiveness applications, (approximately 72%) with the SBA, totaling $62.2 million and has received loan forgiveness on 228 loans, totaling $56.3 million, or 67% of all SBA PPP loans funded. To date, the Company has not received a denial on any loan forgiveness application submitted to the SBA.
Under the second round of the SBA PPP loan program, the Company has funded 172 loans, totaling $29.5 million. Total SBA PPP loans declined $3.9 million, or 6.4%, to $56.7 million at March 31, 2021, compared with $60.6 million at December 31, 2020.
Loan Accommodations
The Company offered a loan deferment relief program of up to six months to clients impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Under rare circumstances, loans will be re-evaluated at the end of the deferral period. To qualify for a second loan deferral, the Company will require a full re-underwriting of the credit.
The Company offered temporary loan payment relief to 445 businesses and 118 individuals totaling approximately $345 million to address cash flow challenges for those impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. To date, the deferral period had ended for 556 clients, or 99%, for loans totaling $329 million. This leaves only seven clients, or 1%, for loans totaling $16.0 million still on deferral. At March 31, 2021, there were only three clients with small balance loans totaling $0.1 million, who have not made a subsequent loan payment for 30 days or greater, after their payment deferment agreement expired. We entered into another loan payment deferment agreement with five clients, who had an initial loan payment deferment agreement. Total dollars outstanding for these clients is $10.1 million. Since these loans were performing loans that were current on their payments prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, these modifications are not considered to be troubled debt restructurings pursuant to applicable accounting and regulatory guidance.
Loan Credit Quality Trends
Non-performing loans were $7.3 million at March 31, 2021, compared with $6.6 million at March 31, 2020. Non-performing loans to total loans were 0.42% at March 31, 2021, compared with 0.41% at March 31, 2020. Non-performing assets were also $7.3 million at March 31, 2021, compared with $6.6 million at March 31, 2020. Non-performing assets to total assets were 0.21% at March 31, 2021, compared with 0.27% at March 31, 2020.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The allowance for credit losses declined by $0.3 million, or 0.6%, to $41.0 million at March 31, 2021, compared with $41.3 million the same period a year ago. The allowance for credit losses to loans held for investment was 2.28% at March 31, 2021, compared with 2.51% at March 31, 2020.
Loans
Loans held for investment grew $154 million, or 9.4%, to $1.80 billion at March 31, 2021, compared with $1.64 billion at March 31, 2020. Year-to-date average loans increased $59 million, or 3.5%, to $1.74 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared with $1.68 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The Company expects that overall loan growth will be in the high-single digits during 2021 as its major lending initiatives have been substantially completed and the Company has significant liquidity to deploy.
Deposits and Liabilities
Total deposits increased $1.04 billion, or 48.9%, to $3.16 billion at March 31, 2021, compared with $2.12 billion at March 31, 2020. Non-interest bearing deposits increased, $368 million, or 49.9%, to $1.1 billion at March 31, 2021, compared with $737 million the same period a year earlier. Interest bearing deposits increased $669 million, or 48.3%, to $2.05 billion at March 31, 2021, compared with $1.39 billion for the same period a year ago. Non-interest-bearing deposits to total deposits were 35.0% as of March 31, 2021, compared with 34.7% as of March 31, 2020.
Shareholders’ Equity
Shareholders’ equity increased by $9.7 million, or 2.9%, to $350 million at March 31, 2021, compared with $340 million at March 31, 2020. The small increase resulted primarily from accumulated other comprehensive income declining to a $13.9 million loss at March 31, 2021, compared with income of $9.3 million at March 31, 2020 resulting from the impact that higher interest rates have on the fair value of investments securities held for sale. Retained earnings increased $31.4 million, or 12.9%, to $276 million at March 31, 2021 compared with $244 million for the same period a year earlier.
The Company’s leverage capital ratio was 10.06% at March 31, 2021, compared with 12.74% at March 31, 2020. The total risk-based capital ratio was 18.41% at March 31, 2021, compared with 18.62% at March 31, 2020.
Net Interest Income and Margin
For the three months ended March 31, 2021, net interest income decreased $3.6 million, or 13.31%, to $23.6 million, compared with $27.2 million for the same period a year earlier. The decrease is primarily the result of net interest margins narrowing 188 basis points to 2.91% for the same comparable periods. The narrowing of net interest margins is primarily the result of the Federal Reserve reducing benchmark rates to almost zero and an increase in the average amount of lower yielding cash and investment securities held by the Company stemming from average core deposits increasing $934 million, or 45.48%, for the same respective periods. Average interest earning assets increased $1.00 billion, or 43.84%, to $3.29 billion for the same comparable periods. The percentage of average loans to total average interest earning assets decreased to 52.90% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared with 73.49% for the same period a year earlier.
Yield on interest earning assets declined 207 basis points to 3.10% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared with 5.17% for the same period a year earlier. The decline in yield on interest earning assets is primarily the result of the average amount of cash and investment securities held by the Company increasing $942 million, or 156%, to $1.54 billion for the same comparable periods with the yield on cash and investment securities declining 169 basis points to 0.60% for the first quarter of 2021 compared with 2.29% for the same comparable periods. This decline is primarily the result of yield on investment securities declining 184 basis points to 0.67% for the same comparable periods as prepayment rates on mortgage-backed securities significantly increased in the first quarter of 2021.
The Company rebalanced its mortgage-backed securities by selling $131 million of securities with the highest prepayment rates at the end of the first quarter and recording a gain on sale of $0.2 million. This sale was offset by the purchase of $150 million of mortgage-backed securities at par value. The Company expects the yield on its investment securities portfolio to be in excess of 1.00% in the second quarter of 2021. In addition, the yield on loans declined 89 basis points to 5.32% compared with 6.21% for the same comparable periods. Average loans outstanding increased $59 million, or 3.54%, to $1.74 billion for the same comparable periods.
For the three months ended March 31, 2021, total cost of interest bearing liabilities decreased 32 basis points to 0.32%, compared with 0.64% for the same period a year earlier and the total cost of funds decreased 21 basis points to 0.21%, compared with 0.42% for the same period a year ago.
For the three months ended March 31, 2021, acquisition accounting adjustments, including the accretion of loan discounts and fair value amortization on time deposits, added four basis points to net interest margin.
Provision for Credit Losses
The Company did not record any provision for credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared with $0.7 million for the same period a year ago. The decrease in provision for credit losses in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared with the same period a year earlier is due primarily to a $9.3 million, or 46.30%, decline in loans individually evaluated for credit losses to $10.8 million and the related allowance for credit losses of $6.5 million offset by a $160 million, or 9.82%, increase in loans with similar risk characterisics to $1.79 billion and the related allowance for credit losses of $34.5 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company incurred net charge-offs of $0.2 million, compared with $0.3 million for the same period a year ago.
Noninterest Income
For the three months ended March 31, 2021, noninterest income increased $1.6 million, or 43.90%, to $5.4 million, compared with $3.7 million the same period a year ago. The increase was primarily due to a $1.1 million, or 62.63%, increase in mortgage banking income to $2.8 million, compared with $1.7 million for the same period a year ago resulting from higher volume and wider margins on loans sold, which was favorably impacted by an increase in mortgage loan refinances, as overall interest rates declined. Total mortgage loans sold increased $70.4 million, or 140%, to $120.5 million for the first quarter compared with the same period a year ago.
Noninterest Expense
For the three months ended March 31, 2021, noninterest expense was $16.5 million, compared with $16.2 million for the same period a year earlier. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company’s efficiency ratio was 57.50% compared with 52.20% for the same period a year ago.
The increase in noninterest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was primarily the result of higher data processing expenses due to technology investment in loan origination software for the mortgage banking division; technology investments made in the commercial banking division, including costs for its cloud-based, commercial loan origination application (nCino), including automated processes for smaller ticket commercial loans (titled Altaexpress™), the implementation of a Salesforce CRM solution, and for a new cloud-based, commercial client treasury management solution; and costs a new cloud-based, construction budget, draw and inspection management solution for both commercial and consumer clients. The Company expects to continue to make significant investments in new technologies to enhance the client experience and empower clients to transact more business on the Company’s mobile platform; to lower the overall costs of its operating platform; and to become more scalable.
The increase in noninterest expense was also the result of higher salaries and employee benefits resulting from annual merit increases and higher incentive payments, particularly in the mortgage banking division. In addition, the Company did not incur FDIC premium payments for the first quarter of 2020 due to the application of the small bank assessment credit from the FDIC. Lastly, the Company incurred $0.2 million in one-time additional legal costs during the first quarter of 2021.
Income Tax Provision
For the three months ended March 31, 2021, income tax expense was $3.0 million, compared with $3.4 million for the same period a year earlier. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the effective tax rate was 24.10%, compared with 23.87% for the same period a year ago.
